#AntiInflationCuisine

Before mixing: One can tuna w/tuna water. One heaping table spoon store brand relish. One heaping tablespoon spicy mustard. ~1/2 cup Fiber One. Eat promptly. <<$2.

If we all ate this for lunch we’d save $$$ and smack inflation to boot. Original recipe used Honey Bunches but almost anything crunchy will do. I suspect crushed potato chips might be best.

do these people just honestly not eat vegetables. Every fucking time, without fail, any of these rich morons posts a survivors meal on the “cheap” it includes literally no vegetables

“Relish” traditionally not made from vegetables.

Vegetables tend to lose their nutritional value once boiled forever and mixed with shitloads of sugar, you know?

This probably contains enough Vitamin C to stop you from getting literal scurvy and not much else

Not as much is lost as people tend to think though.

Canned american relish hardly counts as a serving of vegetables.

i eat rice all the time bc it’s cheap and you can make it without paying much attention to it (with a rice cooker)

sometimes i put an egg or something on it and then act like im a person who knows how to take care of themselves and eat proper food :comfy-cool:

I buy the rice in 5kg bags from middle eastern stores, it is a little bit cheaper than the stuff from the supermarket but it is of incredibly higher quality.

yeah but that would require cooking instead of throwing together things out of a can

Just eat a 39 cent ramen pack and a pickle at that point what the fuck

Edit: Even if you don’t know how to cook you can buy a box of spaghetti for $2 and a can of premade tomato sauce for $3 and make at least 3 meals from it and they will actually resemble food

Even when I ate meat I thought canned tuna was disgusting. Like I want my kitchen to smell like a fucking fish market.

I currently eat meat and yes I agree canned tuna is one of the grossest things I’ve seen people regularly eat

I also hate all seafood though

I like canned tuna but would never mix it with relish. Just put raw salmon in the sugar bowl why don’t you?

My parents never taught me how to cook and I basically taught myself starting with adding onion and garlic to my ramen noodles when I still lived at home and my mom would tell me I’m not allowed to do that because the smell would allegedly keep her awake, like literally half an onion, two, three cloves of garlic and she’s all the way upstairs and I get treated like I’m gassing her in the trenches with my modest attempt at cooking

I’m pretty sure it’s literally not physically possible for smells to wake a person up too so you might say I’m somewhat resentful even now, 13 years later

Eh, smoke does but that’s probably a hard wired thing for survival and garlic is a matter of taste.

Found the alien. “Garlic isn’t a matter of survival” you’re never going to invade the Earth saying things like that.
